Be mindful that some of Cybrary’s virtual labs and practice tests are hosted by our partners, so some information, like the course’s or lab’s outline or additional resources may not be available. Additionally, third-party content does not provide a certificate of completion.

The activity’s landing page includes three tabs:

Outline: The outline tab will offer you an overview of the activity’s modules and contents
Description: This tab provides a deep dive into what the activity covers specifically, why it’s important, and addresses some common questions around the specific domain, topic, or role
Resources: This tab contains additional resources like a course syllabus, the course slides, and if applicable, a cert prep plan

As you scroll down, you will find additional information like the Instructor, Certification Body (if applicable), and the certificate of completion.

If you are using Cybrary to renew certification/maintain your CEUs, you will need a copy of your certificate of completion. This must be shared with the certifying body (i.e. CompTIA, EC-Council).

To launch the course, click the pink “Start” button

Upon launching the activity, you will be taken to the first module. If you had previously started the course, it will automatically take you to where you last left off. Progress is saved automatically.

Once launched, the course will autoplay. In order to move forward to the next section, you must complete the assigned “Tasks” via the lefthand “Tasks” menu and watch the video in full.

Here are the tools/options available to you in-course (from top left to right):

Hamburger Menu: This button will allow you to collapse/toggle the lefthand “Tasks” menu, enabling a fuller screen view experience
Left/Right Arrows: This will allow you to return or skip ahead to the next module activity or module.
Pink Carrot Button: Provides a course outline and allows you to start other modules (i.e. skip ahead to Module 2) at your own pace

Level & XP: allows for quick tracking of your account’s current level (powered by XP) and total XP earned

Forums: is a go-to guide to start discussions, ask questions, and take part in the Cybrary Community

Video Player Options

via the video player, you can:

Play/Pause the video
Adjust volume output
Enable/Customize closed captioning
Bring up the course transcript
Modify video quality (i.e. auto, 720p, 1080p) and playback speed (i.e. 0.5x, 2.0x)

Shows content you’ve saved for later while browsing or exploring the library
Great for building a personalized learning queue or keeping content handy that aligns with upcoming goals

✅ 3. Completed

Shows a chronological list of everything you’ve finished, including:
- Courses
- Labs
- Assessments
- Practice Tests
Also includes your completion date and score (where applicable)
You’ll also see “My Collections” here if you completed an entire bundle

📄 Certificates of Completion

This displays official certificates from completed courses and labs
You can download or share them with managers or the certification governing body for CEU/recertification reporting

📅 4. Upcoming

Shows learning goals that have been assigned to you but haven’t started yet
Each goal will display:
- Start date
- Due date
- Required actions (e.g., complete 12 learning hours)
Use this to prepare in advance for scheduled or quarterly assignments from your admin or team lead

⏳ 5. Expired

Lists any “Goals” that have passed their deadline without completion
These are often used for audit tracking by admins
Even if a goal expires, you can still complete the learning content—it just may not count toward the original target

💡 Tips for Learners:

Check the “Completed” tab weekly to track your CEUs and export certificates
Use “Saved Items” like a personal playlist—great for bookmarking cert prep or career path resources
Don’t worry if a goal shows as expired—focus on continuing your learning and communicating with your manager if needed
